    Stability of Sarma phases in density imbalanced electron-hole bilayer systems

    We study excitonic condensation in an electron-hole bilayer system with unequal layer densities at zero temperature. Using mean-field theory we solve the BCS gap equations numerically and investigate the effects of intra-layer interactions. We analyze the stability of the Sarma phase with \bk,-\bk pairing by calculating the superfluid mass density and also by checking the compressibility matrix. We find that with bare Coulomb interactions the superfluid density is always positive in the Sarma phase, due to a peculiar momentum structure of the gap function originating from the singular behavior of the Coulomb potential at zero momentum and the presence of a sharp Fermi surface. Introducing a simple model for screening, we find that the superfluid density becomes negative in some regions of the phase diagram, corresponding to an instability towards a Fulde-Ferrel-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) type superfluid phase. Thus, intra-layer interaction and screening together can lead to a rich phase diagram in the BCS-BEC crossover regime in electron-hole bilayer systems

    Lattice solitons in quasicondensates

    Full text link
    We analyze finite temperature effects in the generation of bright solitons in condensates in optical lattices. We show that even in the presence of strong phase fluctuations solitonic structures with well defined phase profile can be created. We propose a novel family of variational functions which describe well the properties of these solitons and account for the non-linear effects in the band structure. We discuss also the mobility and collisions of these localized wave packets.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure

    Drag of superfluid current in bilayer Bose systems

    Get PDF
    An effect of nondissipative drag of a superfluid flow in a system of two Bose gases confined in two parallel quasi two-dimensional traps is studied. Using an approach based on introduction of density and phase operators we compute the drag current at zero and finite temperatures for arbitrary ratio of densities of the particles in the adjacent layers. We demonstrate that in a system of two ring-shape traps the "drag force" influences on the drag trap in the same way as an external magnetic flux influences on a superconducting ring. It allows to use the drag effect to control persistent current states in superfluids and opens a possibility for implementing a Bose analog of the superconducting Josephson flux qubit.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures, new section is added, refs are adde

    Superfluidity of electron-hole pairs in randomly inhomogeneous bilayer systems

    Full text link
    In bilayer systems electron-hole (e-h) pairs with spatially separated components (i.e., with electrons in one layer and holes in the other) can be condensed to a superfluid state when the temperature is lowered. This article deals with the influence of randomly distributed inhomogeneities on the superfluid properties of such bilayer systems in a strong perpendicular magnetic field. Ionized impurities and roughenings of the conducting layers are shown to decrease the superfluid current density of the e-h pairs. When the interlayer distance is smaller than or close to the magnetic length, the fluctuations of the interlayer distance considerably reduce the superfluid transition temperature.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figure

    Effects of perturbative exchanges in a QCD-string model

    Full text link
    The QCD-string model for baryons derived by Simonov and used for the calculation of baryon magnetic moments in a previous paper is extended to include also perturbative gluon and meson exchanges. The mass spectrum of the baryon multiplet is studied. For the meson interaction either the pseudoscalar or pseudovector coupling is used. Predictions are compared with the experimental data. Besides these exchanges the influence of excited quark orbitals on the baryon ground state are considered by performing a multichannel calculation. The nucleon-Delta splitting increases due to the mixing of higher quark states while the baryon magnetic momenta decrease. The multichannel calculation with perturbative exchanges is shown to yield reasonable magnetic moments while the mass spectrum is close to experiment.Comment: 37 pages Revtex with 2 figures, to be published in Phys.

    Test of the τ-model of Bose–Einstein correlations and reconstruction of the source function in hadronic Z-boson decay at LEP

    Get PDF
    Bose–Einstein correlations of pairs of identical charged pions produced in hadronic Z decays are analyzed in terms of various parametrizations. A good description is achieved using a Lévy stable distribution in conjunction with a model where a particle’s momentum is correlated with its space–time point of production, the τ-model. Using this description and the measured rapidity and transverse momentum distributions, the space–time evolution of particle emission in two-jet events is reconstructed. However, the elongation of the particle emission region previously observed is not accommodated in the τ-model, and this is investigated using an ad hoc modification

    Effects of density imbalance on the BCS-BEC crossover in semiconductor electron-hole bilayers

    Full text link
    We study the occurrence of excitonic superfluidity in electron-hole bilayers at zero temperature. We not only identify the crossover in the phase diagram from the BCS limit of overlapping pairs to the BEC limit of non-overlapping tightly-bound pairs but also, by varying the electron and hole densities independently, we can analyze a number of phases that occur mainly in the crossover region. With different electron and hole effective masses, the phase diagram is asymmetric with respect to excess electron or hole densities. We propose as the criterion for the onset of superfluidity, the jump of the electron and hole chemical potentials when their densities cross.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

    Excitonic instability and electric-field-induced phase transition towards a two dimensional exciton condensate

    Full text link
    We present an InAs-GaSb-based system in which the electric-field tunability of its 2D energy gap implies a transition towards a thermodynamically stable excitonic condensed phase. Detailed calculations show a 3 meV BCS-like gap appearing in a second-order phase transition with electric field. We find this transition to be very sharp, solely due to exchange interaction, and so, the exciton binding energy is greatly renormalized even at small condensate densities. This density gradually increases with external field, thus enabling the direct probe of the Bose-Einstein to BCS crossover.Comment: LaTex, 11 pages, 3 ps figures, To appear in PR
